178. Moonlit Night
"It's to truthfully explain what happened to Miss Xi today." Pu Qing glanced at me, looked away again, and muttered in a low voice: "Girl's, what are you doing with these?" ”
I shrugged and strode out the door, "Nothing. "I don't know if Chang Xi is a blessing in disguise this time, or a blessing and misfortune, but one thing is certain, if someone wants to investigate, Chang Xi's identity will be self-defeating.
Liu Zhang sat on the edge of the bed and poured a glass of water for Chang Xi, many words choked up in his throat and couldn't speak, just slowly patted Chang Xi on the back.
"Drink slowly, do you want to eat something? I see the maids have brought some pastries, are you hungry? ”
Chang Xi didn't speak, she felt her nose sour, and then the ghost pushed away the teacup and stretched out her arm around Liu Zhang's neck.
Both of their figures were shrouded in the moonlight that poured in, as if a thin white veil had been draped over them.
"Tonight...... Tonight, tonight......"
Chang Xi buried her whole face in Liu Zhang's clothes, she didn't know how to express her feelings, and she was afraid that she would say the wrong thing.
Liu Zhang measured his face, and his lips gently kissed Chang Xi's loose black hair, with a faint fragrance. He hugged her like this, not daring to exert himself or wanting to let go.
"I'm sorry."
"Thank you."
The two of them said three different words together, and then froze for a moment.
They all understood each other's thoughts, Liu Zhang was apologizing for what made Chang Xi sad because of Lu Chu before, and Chang Xi was thanking Liu Zhang for saving him without hesitation.
I don't know if Lu Dao is an illusion or what's wrong, Chang Xi feels that at this moment, Liu Zhang seems to have become his real family.
It was a kind of warmth that Liu Ying couldn't give, and it has always been an unprecedented sense of security. Liu Zhang seems to really make Chang Xi feel that he can become a man who guards him for the rest of his life.
With soldiers, rivers and mountains, and life, she will protect her thoughtful man.
But it's funny, Chang Xi's heart can't give him much place, and she won't allow her heart to have a man other than Liu Ying, even if Liu Zhang goes to the soup for him. She only allows herself to be apologetic, guilty, and grateful, but she must not be emotional.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to take a single step on this road of revenge without return.
Pu Qing and I sat on the edge of the stone bridge, and to be honest, I didn't know what I was worried about. The feet of the two of us touched the water, gently waving layers of ripples, which looked distinct under the moonlight.
"Fleur, I want to ask you a question."
"You ask, as long as it's not about love or not, it's okay."
Pu Qing held the stakes of the stone bridge with both hands and looked at me sideways: "Are you from another world?" ”
I stopped all my movements, and my toes were dipped in water. I twisted my neck to look at Pu Qing, the moon burrowed into the dark clouds, and his whole face was instantly hidden in the darkness.
At this moment, the 21st century Shanghai has the same moonlight as Chang'an City, and such a soft moonlight spills into the villa area, through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, shining on Xiao Jie, who is lying on the chaise longue and wearing a nightgown.
He dragged a glass of red wine in his hand, his slender and sturdy thighs slumped casually on the chair, he shook the wine glass in his hand, and then drank it all in one go.
"Why are you drinking so hard, if you're drunk, I can't promise what I'll do to you."
Ma Xi, who was dressed in silk pajamas, walked behind her, and it could be seen that she didn't even wear underwear, and walked towards Xiao Jue with bare feet.
Xiao Jue saw Ma Xi from the reflection of the glass, and he looked away: "It's a big night, what are you doing dressed like this?" ”
Ma Xi smiled and sat down on the armrest of the recliner: "What? Thinking about her again? ”
Xiao Jue brushed aside Ma Xi's fingers on his shoulder and stood up from the recliner: "Don't talk nonsense, you stole my phone, right?" Hand it over! ”
Ma Xi squeaked and laughed twice like a white bone spirit: "Don't worry, I won't use your phone to do anything to that woman, at least, you are still in my hands now." ”
Ma Xi's ability to steal things is that she specially visited a famous thief in Europe in the nineteenth century, in fact, many rare treasures and famous paintings in museums are fake, and the real ones are almost stored in Ma Xi's basement.
And this skill has also become a constant skill for her survival, including harming people!
"Don't expect to stir up my relationship with her, I warn you Ma Xi ......"
Before Xiao Jie's words were finished, Ma Xi didn't know where Lu Dao took out a pistol, pulled the trigger and fired it at the wall behind Xiao Jie.
A loud bang exploded behind Xiao Jie's head, and he covered his ears, which were almost half deaf, and yelled, "You're fucking crazy! What to do! ”
Ma Xi smiled coldly, and then fired several bullets in succession, knocking the whole room into a mess.
She blew on the muzzle of the gun and pursed her lips and smiled: "This is the woman's place, I don't like it here, we should be able to change places now." ”
Thinking of the neighbor's voice calling the police, Xiao Jieqing kicked Ma Xi violently: "You women are crazy!" ”
The slightest movement at night always seems unusually noisy, so God will look at everyone who breaks the peace, so sneaking around at night always ends well.
Though darkness will envelop all things, and cover their appearance.
But the darkness also reveals things that are more invisible in the daylight, and the ugly creatures that glow with light, smiling, unknowingly grow to become the masters of the darkness.
——————————
It has been ten days since Chang Xi was kidnapped by the Huns, and the matter has basically been resolved, although Liu Zhang's handover did not attract the attention of the imperial court, but he and other brothers have brought the surrounding Huns' nests to a pot.
It's just that they don't know the way, and they don't treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and the Huns will be even more rampant in the future.
Putting aside these disasters, this time Chang Xi regained Liu Zhang's favor through these things.
Obviously, no matter how good Lu Chu's bitter meat plan is, after all, it can't withstand Chang Xi's fear of making Liu Zhang worry and fear on the verge of life and death, he even has been accompanying Chang Xi in the room in addition to handling government affairs and military training, and the two are tired of being together every day, even I can't stand it, let alone Lu Chu.
Maybe it was because I rushed into the thief's den with Liu Zhang to rescue Chang Xi, and Liu Zhang was deeply moved, and his attitude towards me obviously rose several levels, and he blamed me for hurting Lu Chu before.
All in all, within these ten days, Lu Chu was completely ignored by Liu Zhang.
Chang Xi was not idle over there, her mind was actually not on Liu Zhang's body at all.
Chang Xi told me that it was because he received the news of Zhang Yan's fine work that day, so he went to the hidden streets and alleys to prepare to meet her, but he was only halfway through the road when he was covered with a black cloth bag and knocked out directly, and then he was locked up in a small temple.
Those Huns were not stupid, they didn't tell Liu Zhang immediately, just to be anxious about him, but also to observe the movements of the Hou Mansion in the chaos, thinking that they could take advantage of it, but they had not yet found a breakthrough point, so they had to write a letter and shoot into the Hou Mansion on the seventh day.
"Chang Meiren is really a blessing, she was actually tied up by the Huns, so she won Zhu Xuhou's love, it's really clever."
"You're not bad, you can sneak into Zhu Xuhou's Mansion, and you've been begging for nothing to ask me about the whereabouts of my soldiers and horses."
The dialogue between Su Musha and Chang Xi basically lasted for a short time, and there was no normal speech, which was incisive and pretentious in summary.
The two of them reached a consensus at ten o'clock in the evening, behind the garden of the Hou Mansion, as if they were in love.
"I didn't get the map of the soldiers and horses, but Bang Qiu told me that she had a relationship with Liu Fei, the king of Qi, so she hid the major secret in the Zhuxu Mansion, saying that we could only see it when Emperor Hui died, so I have been waiting."
Chang Xi's sounds a little convincing, she is a purpose, delaying time.
Su Musha nodded, and he believed it as a matter of course, so I said that the IQ of handsome guys is immeasurable.
"Okay, then we will wait for this opportunity, and when we get the Soldier and Horse Map, I will definitely show the master to help you fulfill your wish."
"Who is your master?"
"I can't comment on that, but she's the wisest."
The whole story is so interesting that every detail leads to a completely different ending.
For example, if Su Musha told Chang Xi about the relationship between him and Dai Guo, the story would be turned upside down again.
Because they would never have thought that they are inextricably linked with each other, and the key to this is the sentence of Bang Qiu, the sentence of Liu Heng, the assistant king.
Chang Xi still has a lot to go on her road, and she is thinking about countermeasures almost every day, but when she plans how to subvert the Han Palace in the future, she still has to face a fact before that.
Liu Ying is seriously ill.
In fact, Zhang Yan, the little queen, has a lot of ability, and it is not easy to install a fine work in the heavily guarded Zhu Xuhou Mansion, she has done something that even Lu Pheasant can't do.
Bi'er is very clever, because she is careful and low-key on weekdays, so no one cares about her behavior. Chang Xi was very worried about her at first, but gradually found that she was still a very reliable girl.
The news she brought was that Zhang Yan asked her to enter the palace to accompany Liu Ying.
What Chang Xi is most afraid of facing will come after all, she actually knows in her heart that Liu Ying will die, but shuffling allows her to accept the truth.
Because the weirdness is here, it is clear that she left the world one step ahead of Liu Ying, and she does not need to bear the pain of life and death, but in the end, she actually wants to watch Liu Ying go one step ahead of herself.
